“You’re planning to escape and not admit what we’ve done?”

The man’s voice, as he had just woken up, was hoarse yet sexy. This immediately made Xia Zhiwan recall how the man whispered to her when he was on top of her last night. She was so embarrassed that she curled into his arms like a shy kitten.

“I don’t mean that… Thank you for saving me, but we can’t do this.”

“We can’t? Do you hate me?”

“I don’t hate you…” Xia Zhiwan said as she looked away.

The man had taken advantage of her and took away her precious first time. If it was another man, she would have fought with him. However, if it was Issac, she would not feel hateful toward him even if she felt regretful and embarrassed.

Issac smiled slightly, and his dark eyes were as gentle as the early spring’s greenery.

“That means you like me. You like me, right?”

Even Issac did not realize that his usually steady heart was beating nervously as he waited for her answer.

Just as Xia Zhiwan was thinking about a way to answer him, she met the man’s confident eyes and immediately had a thought.

Why should she tell him her thoughts so stupidly? It would be embarrassing!

“It’s already eye-catching enough when you made me the general manager. Everyone was guessing if I used some dirty tactics to get the position. If you do this… Then won’t it make people gleeful, thinking their guesses were right?!”

Issac held her against his chest casually as his long, fair fingers wrapped and played around with her soft hair. He then widened his eyes and said, “Who’ll dare to judge you? I’ll just deal with them if they do.”

He was talking about it so lightly, but Xia Zhiwan sighed wearily.

It was her fault that she was too eager to gain quick success. She did not analyze the situation properly before going out, causing her to be caught in others’ traps. If her ambiguous relationship with the new chairman was known by others, she would definitely be criticized and gossipped about again!

Xia Zhiwan wanted to find an excuse to leave, but the man had caught on to her thoughts one step earlier. His hands were like iron handcuffs locking her onto the bed.

“You, let go of me! I’ll still need to get out of bed!” She said as she struggled.

Her struggling had rubbed onto Issac’s sensitive area, and her warm, naked body was giving out a tempting scent. 

“Please excuse me.” The man softly moaned as desire flashed across his eyes. He rolled over to press her down, grabbed her thighs accurately, and entered her.

“Why are you doing this again… Ahh!” Xia Zhiwan wanted to cry as she laid under his body again aggrievedly. Her round, reddish eyes were like a bunny’s, and people would feel sympathetic toward her.

Issac smiled helplessly as he gently touched her cheek. “Be good. I’ll solve all your worries. All you need to do is let me love you.”

His dazzling eyes seemed to hold infinite magical power. Although Xia Zhiwan had many doubts about his identity, her defense in her heart was constantly broken, wanting to trust him without any worry.

Issac was only willing to let her go after they mingled together until the afternoon.

Once Xia Zhiwan regained her freedom, she realized that her phone had been bombarded by Weiwei, notifying her to join the committee meeting.

She prepared herself and rushed to the hotel’s entrance without caring about anything else. However, she realized over ten people were queuing up to get a taxi.

Suddenly, a dazzling black sports car stopped in front of her. In the car, the silver-haired man gestured to her to get into the car with his chin up.

She was grateful for Issac’s kind gesture. However, she wanted to go to the company without gaining others’ attention. Thus, she sat in the back row cautiously instead of the passenger seat beside Issac.

The man’s green eyes turned gloomy as he stared at the silent girl through the rear mirror. Suddenly, he showed a cruel yet gentle smile.

‘You want to keep a distance from me? In your dreams!’

Once they got out of the car, Issac immediately caught Xia Zhiwan trying to sneak away by herself. He then walked into the company side by side with her. 

No matter if it was the receptionists or the employees who passed by, they could not help but look at Xia Zhiwan and Issac.

“Wow, that’s really the new chairman? How can he be more handsome than a celebrity?!”

“Who’s that woman standing by his side? She can’t be his girlfriend, right?”

“That’s the general manager who got promoted out of nowhere on her first day!”

“Huh? Isn’t that woman the trash from the Xia family?”

Endless gossip sounded as Xia Zhiwan looked downward nervously. Suddenly, she was grasped by a warm, large palm.
